Hello travel buds! I am in the early stages of planning a trip to Cuba this coming winter.Has anyone been there lately? And, what places do you recommend seeing?What activities to participate in?Best places for lodging? And is it OK to travel alone? I am a single female and have always wanted to travel here.

My husband enjoys an occasional cigar after a meal out on holiday but can anyone advise what is the situation in Cuba regarding smoking. Our hotel in Havana is probably ok.. I believe they have a cigar lounge , where he can go to enjoy a cigar after dinner.But in other places --ie bars/ restaurants ect ----Do the have designated smoking areas or would he have to go outside.Thanks
